• TITLE: Physical Parameters Related to Quantify Quality of Effectiveness of Charged Particles at Lower Doses

  AUTHORS: Abubaker Ali Yousif, Ismail Bin Bahari, Muhamad Samudi Yasir

  KEYWORDS: Quality Factor, Inactivation Effect, Physical Parameters

  ABSTRACT: Quality factors for protons and helium particles has determined for cell inactivation using linear energy transfer. The quality has also been investigated as a function for other physical parameters, such as mean free path and effective charge for protons and helium particles, for a better interpretation to the effectiveness of these charged particles in V79 cells. Explanation of quality is clearly illustrated in terms of the average dis-tance of energy deposition events in biological systems.
